U.F.P's and the search for Mr Mojo!

I can't seem to get going properly and so have been absent on here for a while. I tried cleaning out the craftroom as several dear blog friends prescribed and it worked enough for me to get out and sort some UFP's that I hoped might clear the old brain cells and I thought I would share them here to show that I am not completely vanished off the planet!
Firstly, here is a crewel embroidery I keep picking up and down. It is to go with another one I finished in the nineties can you believe?

The next one is a log cabin quilt and although I have now got the backing I still have 6 more blocks to complete. It is made from Moda fabric and I love the colours. Goodness knows when I shall even begin quilting!

This is a warm little jacket for my darling Grandson, at this rate it will be finished in time for number 2 due in August!
 
004
I need to complete one more purple border for the lap blanket I have knitted ages ago! Come on Barb, get going!!
 
005
I did manage to make this for my youngest daughter who got engaged on Valentine day, I wanted to enter it for Hels Sunday Stamper several weeks ago, but couldn't complete in time.
 
007
I have fallen in love with a brown leather satchel handbag that was covered in butterflies, but at over £45 was a bit steep for me and so I am machine embroidering  a collection  and on the look out for a recycled school satchel and shall then worry about how to adhere them!

Lastly, here is a pattern I am longing to have sewn up with some lovely material I found on Ebay, but I have not got round to cutting it out yet.

Well, I hope I have shocked the old Mojo into action by showing you these and I hope very much that I haven't bored you! What am I like, hope I see you all very soon with something finished. Thanks for looking dear blog friends. xx

  1. I have not been bored at all, I am fascinated. I still have some needlework that I started in hospital in 1980, so I beat you hands down on that one! You really should finish the quilt, it is going to be stunning and your new pattern for your Ebay purchase is gorgeous. I also know which handbag you mean, I love it too, looking forward to seeing yours when you buy the bag and finish it! Lovely to see you back. Anne xx
